GitHub adds notifications for Gists

GitHub announced support for notifications on Gists and it allows you to stay on top of comments and reply from your email. This new feature will be useful so that you don’t have to manually check back on Gists to see if anyone has commented.

Once you’ve subscribed to a Gist you should see comment notifications on the GitHub notifications section of your account and these can also come in an email if you have that setting turned on.
